On April 13th, 2021, the City of Regina removed a statue commemorating the Father of Canadian Confederacy, Sir John A. MacDonald.
The removal of this statue from Victoria Park was done in bad faith and without proper public consultation.
“Remove not the ancient landmark which thy forefathers have set.”
- Proverbs 22:28
Now, after 5 years, the statue remains absent and the attacks on our heritage continue …
This development only characterises how unaccountable the Government of Canada has become. At the federal, provincial, and even municipal level, officials entrusted with positions of authority are contravening the will of the people.
With the Crown now neglecting to provide a judicial review into the process used to de-registered the Canadian Nationalist Party, it has become apparent that no democratic channel exists to remedy these injustices. The electoral ballot system has failed Canadians.
Access to public property continues to be restricted and national symbols continue to be shuttered away.
Despite the criticisms surrounding Sir John A. MacDonald’s policies, we support his vision for Canada:
As a born and raised Saskatchewanian, I am offended by my provincial capitals’ attempt to remove such an important figure of Canadian Confederacy.
What I know is that excessive government bureaucracy, closed-door decision making and lack of transparency are destroying our livelihood.
The Police, eager to protect their own, will go along with whatever orders are passed down to them from those who sign their paycheque. Rather than doing the right thing, they consistently choose to do the easy thing … Whatever earns them the applause of the newspaper media owners.
These people are more concerned with ensuring their police cruisers are washed and shiny rather than protecting Canadian interests.
They will arrest dissenters in an attempt to quell resistance to the “post-national” agenda. The removal of this statue is only one example of this political agenda being enforced against our will.
We choose to do the right thing, and the right thing in these circumstances is to protest the deconstruction of our national legacy.
It’s time Canadians stood up and realized that if we cater to the people who are causing these problems in the first place, we can only expect more of the same …
After a full decade of advocating Canadian nationalism (2016-2026), it has become obvious that no resolution is forthcoming from the current administration.
Do not stand idly by while our legacy is under attack!
